It's increasingly rare but usually 2-3 Marshalls on most days at the moment. #22 made a appearance not long ago (X reg), still a half decent Marshall in it's final days.

Looks like Halton have lost the Sunday 81s however won the 201 Merseytravel Service (Liverpool Royal Hospital - Speke Morrisons). Since their Solos are now to old for Merseytravel work does anyone suspect they will use their Darts or would the Marshalls be more likley to get on there?

When I used their old 801, I'm fairly sure it was an eVolution vehicle.
But this was a few years ago and maybe they'd use one of the newer Enviros or even an OmniCity now.

Omnicities are mainly used on 81s so more than likely would be these.

I wondered how long it would be before they cancelled the 9. Just a few questions though, how long had they operated the 81 for, and is the 201 the one that was operated by Avon?

the 201 is Operated by Cumfybus

An OmniCity would seem like overkill for the 201. I wonder if they'll soon acquire some newer small vehicles, e.g. Solos or MPDs, since the old ones could probably do with replacing fairly soon anyway.

#20 would seem ideal, but that's also past fifteen years old now. (That arbitrary age limit rule is annoying!)
